Items related to Remote sensing geology
"Remote Sensing Geology" offers a full treatment of the subject by discussing remote sensing methods and applying them to geo-exploration. The reader will find a range of information on: various aspects of geological remote sensing, ranging from laboratory spectra of minerals and rocks and ground truth, to aerial and space-borne remote sensing; the integration of photogeology into remote sensing; remote sensing as a tool of geo-exploration; and a range of geoscientific applications of remote sensing, from meso- to global scale. The material is introduced at a basic level, intended to serve students as an introductory text on remote sensing. The main part of the book is also intended to be of value to active researchers. This textbook on geology, remote sensing and photo-interpretation is intended for graduate students, teachers, researchers and consultants.

Review:
From the reviews:
"This book is mainly intended for graduate students and research workers ‘interested in applied Earth sciences’. ... it has very useful, brief descriptions of subjects ... . There are figures on most pages, which considerably help the understanding of the subject ... . The index is very good ... . Libraries should definitely purchase it as a useful reference book, especially with its more than usual references to tropical countries ... ." (R.B.King, The Photogrammetric Record, Vol. 18 (104), 2003)
From the reviews of the second edition:
"This is a useful book for teaching remote sensing and how it can be used in geology in particular. ... The book is divided into 16 very interesting chapters. ... The appendices at the end are very good in explaining what is meant by color along with other valuable items. I strongly recommend this book for anyone who is teaching remote sensing for geologists." (Fouad Michael, American Association of Petroleum Geologists, Vol. 87 (12), 2003)
